DP Ruto desperately woos
KASS FM
callers to fight Gov Isaac
Ruto For the third time in as
many months,
this week DP Ruto
mobilised KASS FM
frequent callers and hosted
them at his
Weston Hotel off Langata
Road. The
hotel, also known as "the
Hague", is the
unofficial URP headquarters
where also one ODM MP
from Western has been
holding secret meetings
with the URP
supremo. KASS FM is the
leading Kalenjin
vernacular radio stations,
with popular
call-in shows which are
highly political.
It's callers have increasingly
become
very critical of DP Ruto,
especially due
to skewed appointments in
Jubilee govern and lately his
anti-devolution
stand. As happened
previously, the callers
numbering about one half
dozen, were
transported from various
parts of Rift
Valley and brought to
Nairobi to meet
the desperate DP who
hosted them for
"tea" at his Weston Hotel
and later gave them
Sh11,000/- each so that
they may
change tact and start to
oppose and to
criticize Bomet Governor
Isaac Ruto on
air. Gov. Ruto is seen as a
real threat to DP
Ruto hold on the Kalenjin
vote, and has
lately become a thorn in the
flesh of
Jubilee Government with
his pro
devolution
pronouncements
